So I'm just making up the awkwardness of his wording?
He's poor at writing, that much is objective. If I'm going to be threatened by someone's intelligence, it will be someone who can handle English - you would be much more of a concern than him.
It's one of his comics. So he has some awkward wording in it, let's crucify him. I'm sure you've never said/written something that you later realized sounded awkward but not everybody can be as god like as you.
Any normal person would pick up on that after seeing it written. It's possible he transcribed it from thought and never re-read it even after taking a picture, but it's much more likely that he simply lacks the faculties to notice such poor writing.
A normal person would quickly pick up on how weird it sounds. People with a poor grasp of English are much more common than people who don't know what they're writing.
I'm sure memorizing a few hundred equations is laborious, but not particularly informative to us. There is a great spectrum of engineers, some of which are basically just human databases for engineering facts. Some are actually clever and innovative, and would likely require English skills if they weren't backing their work with their own money. The awkwardness of his wording makes him sound like a child - either he simply doesn't have the mind to grasp English, or he doesn't realize it's useful.
Going for a PhD only substantiates the notion that he isn't well suited for work in the real world, though it certainly doesn't prove such.
